Staff in the "pro shop" was friendly, but could not answer questions with regard to pin placement. No sand on carts, so couldn't fill them n divots. Many of the greens were covered with Poa Annua making putting very inconsistent.

Dean B

Course was quirky but fun. Front nine was straight forward but back nine was a lot of target golf it would help a lot to play again with some course knowledge. Staff was friendly but prices were a little higher than advertised on Golf Now. For a threesome it cost over $200. The course was a little beat up as most public courses are this time of year. All in all would play it again

Fun course . Two different 9's.

Very nice!

Course was in great shape and staff was very friendly and helpful. We had heavy rain after hole 8 and was given a rain check for 9 holes, which we played the following Monday. Great experience.

OVERPRICED

This course charging people $57 to play is absolutely insane. This is a $30 course AT BEST. Greens were in awful condition, fairways were okay but very hard. I know it’s a dry summer and this course might have not seen much water but the conditions were terrible. Some of the worst greens I’ve ever played on. Very fuzzy, slow, patches of longer grass. Some fun and challenging holes but not in good shape at all.

The course was not in good shape

Greens were long and weedy. They were slow. The back nine was target golf, not for first time play. After 4 holes we wanted to leave because of the conditions the course was in. Not even close to worth the money we paid. I will never play this course again. They say it was a Gary Player design. Well he should be ashamed to put his name on the course.
